Mom arrested and jailed after her 3 children died in a house fire, NC police say
A 28-year-old Greensboro woman was arrested and jailed on Friday in connection with the deaths of her three children in a December house fire, Guilford County jail records show.
Police charged Brandi Labria Sturdivant with three counts of felony child abuse involving a serious injury, according to jail records.
Sturdivant remained jailed Saturday on a $150,000 bond.
The children, all under 5 years old, died after flames engulfed their home on Grimsley Street on Dec. 12, WFMY reported.
Firefighters climbed a ladder to pull them from their upstairs rooms, according to the station.
Police were called to the home just before 8 a.m. to help firefighters, WXII reported.
“Please keep your Greensboro Fire Department family and everyone involved in your thoughts and prayers,” fire officials said on Facebook the day of the fire.
